Leon Day, the man who turned around Universal Arches and was instrumental in organising the two MADI Ball Rallies, has become brand ambassador for sash window manufacturer Roseview Windows in a deal that will also see the fabricator sponsor him in return to UK MotoX racing.
Before his time at Universal, Leon was one of the UK’s top competitive MotoX riders, racing for TeamGreen Kawasaki. Supported by Roseview, he now intends to return to the track in the veterans class of the BMSA racing calendar.
“The window industry and MotoX are my two passions,” he said, “This arrangement with Roseview is the perfect way to return to both. The Vets class of modern MotoX draws an incredible following, and Team Roseview Kawasaki will take it by storm.
“Similarly, Roseview are one of the window industry’s most well-respected brands. I wouldn’t work with a company I don’t believe in, but I’m proud to be working with Roseview.”
Roseview Chairman Steve Bygrave, added: “I first met Leon in the build-up to the inaugural MADI Ball Rally, and we became firm friends straight away. We’ve kept in touch ever since and when Leon mentioned his plan to return to MotoX, the opportunity to work with him for mutual benefit was too good to pass up. Leon doesn’t do anything by halves, so we know that in both his racing and his work with Roseview it will be a great collaboration.”
Currently Leon is training and practicing, with a view to launching Team Roseview Kawasaki at the annual BSMA meeting in Devon later this year. He’s also working with Roseview, both behind the scenes and on plans for this year’s FIT Show.
